SORRY!
03.16.05 (12:17 pm)   [edit]
I'm sorry things are not going well for you. I'm sorry your health is poor. I'm sorry your job is hard in your health. I'm sorry you can't afford gas to get to work. I'm sorry there are no jobs that allow you flexibility with your condition and that you require training for anything else. I'm sorry you can't afford to move closer to your job.

But I cannot do anything about it, and I am tired of being your sounding board. I can only repeat the same positive thoughts so many times!! (Doesn't the USA have anything in place to help people with disabilities?!)

And man, a certain somebody is just annoying the hell outta me these days. At least he's not asking what-if's related to being in love with me anymore. All he does is talk about his job...how stressful it is...how a problem is eating him up. When did I become his sounding board, too?? I've been tempted to tell him what I think of him, but I am biting my tongue.

This was an approximation of the latest annoying conversation:

Him: I have a moral diilemma. Should I stick with the current Linux kernel I'm on or use the latest?
Me: What's the moral part? [I hate how he set up the question...stop being so dramatic...]
Him: Using the latest will decrease performance.
Me: Is everyone expected to use the latest kernel?
Him: That's what it's there for.
Me. Then use the latest.
Him: Why?
Me: Because it's the latest.
Him:

Dear Lord...if you're going to ask me for my opinion, just take it. You're in the tech industry. You should know that people move on to the latest despite it being worse for the user. It's the way technology works!! If the latest performance is worse, everybody is forced to accept it!! And it's Linux, there will be new kernel soon enough. Just move along with the times.

And then I got pissed off. I asked him why he bothered asking for my opinion if he already had an answer in mind. I mean, why else would he try to change my mind?! Then he said he was only questioning my certainty.

If you're going to ask me something, of course I am going to reason and think before I give you an answer!!

I wonder if I was that annoying to James. He always did tell me I overplayed the Devil's Advocate. Man, I hope I not that annoying. This guy is also a big smartass. That is annoying too. But I am a smartass sometimes. I hope I am not that annoying.

And he still reminds me of James...with the massively hairy chest, love for cats, and how his life and well-being revolves around his job!! :roll:
